It's important for me as I'm self-employed. I'd prefer to have a pay-as-you-go number, but I don't fancy going round endless shops in the high street looking for a good, memorable number.

Any thoughts?

It's a long shot, granted, but how about calling your chosen service provider and asking them for one?

so it's important to you, but not so much as to get you to do a bit of mild walking?

I have some 02 fancy-number-doodah SIM's at home. I'll have a look and let you know what exactly but it won't be until later in the week. If the number(s) is/are any good and they are still "valid" you're welcome to it/them.

There are 10 consecutive numbers all with 888 in them. Good if you deal with chinese people wink

"Call this nummber. Only £300"

A guy I worked with has the number (mobile code) 000000

Should be worth a few quid I guess.

Every number you type in comes back as £300.
